Competition: USA Major League Soccer
Date: Mon 26.August
Match begins: 00:00 (UTC)
Venue: Toyota Stadium (6200 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Dallas are in the 8th position while the guests worry at 10th.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Houston Dynamo have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
